  • Abstract: Cavity optomagnonics have received considerable research interests in recent years, due to the coherent magnetic Brillioun light scattering in the ferromagnetic material. Here, we theoretically propose and numerically verify a feasible scheme for the full polarization tomography on photon statistics in an optomagnonic whispering-gallery-mode microresonator system in the weak-coupling regime. By performing the polarization pre- and post-selections to manipulate the polarization states of the input and output photons, we find that the rich sub- and super-Poissonian photon statistics can be selectively generated, thanks to quantum interferences. In the parameter space of phase delay, the evolution from photon bunching to antibunching indicates the change from phase to amplitude squeezing. Our obtained result has potential applications in tunable quantum polarized light source based on cavity optomagnonic platform in micro-nano scale. It also offers a deeper understanding for full quantum cavity optomagnonics.
